Job Description

Kingston Building Australia – Brisbane QLD

n

Building Assessor / Site Supervisor – Insurance Repairs

n

Get Off the Tools. Assess the Damage. Run the Repairs.

n

Are you an experienced tradesperson, builder, insurance assessor or supervisor looking for a role with more variety and ownership?

n

KBA Insurance Repairs is looking for a Building Assessor / Site Supervisor to join our team, covering Brisbane/Gold Coast and surrounding regions.

n

This is a genuine dual role where you'll be involved across both sides of the insurance repair process — assessing damaged properties, preparing scopes and estimates, and supervising repair works through to completion.

n

If you understand building, know how to communicate with customers and trades, and enjoy taking ownership of a job rather than simply passing it on, this could be the role for you.

n

About KBA

n

KBA Insurance Repairs is one of Australia's leading insurance repair builders.

n

We work with major insurers to manage residential building claims from the initial assessment through to repair completion.

n

Our focus is simple — quality repairs, clear communication and getting the job done properly.

n

We have an established national team, strong systems and a large network of trades and suppliers supporting our operations across Australia.

n

A Role With Variety

n

Some days you may be assessing a newly allocated claim and preparing the scope of works.

n

Other days you'll be on site resolving a repair issue, meeting a customer or trade, checking quality or helping bring a project through to completion.

n

You won't be stuck doing the same thing every day — and you'll have the opportunity to use your building knowledge across the entire repair lifecycle.

n

Travel within the region will be required, and occasional travel may also be required to support CAT events or increased claim volumes.

n





Why This Role Stands Out

n

n
- Variety – combine assessing and site supervision
n
- Own the outcome – be involved from initial assessment through to completed repair
n
- Get off the tools – use your building knowledge without doing the physical work
n
- Solid pipeline of work – established insurance clients and consistent workflow
n
- Support behind you – experienced coordination teams, systems and processes
n
- Career progression – develop your experience across both assessing and construction management
n

n

What You'll Be Doing

n

Your role will include a combination of building assessment and repair supervision, depending on workload and business requirements.

n

Building Assessing

n

n
- Attend insured properties and assess building damage
n
- Identify the cause and extent of damage
n
- Differentiate between insurance-related damage, maintenance and pre‐existing issues
n
- Prepare clear and accurate assessment reports
n
- Develop detailed scopes of works, estimates and repair recommendations
n
- Provide technical and building advice to internal teams and clients
n
- Liaise professionally with homeowners, insurers and other stakeholders
n
- Assist with disputes, variations and technical queries where required
n

n

Site Supervision

n

n
- Manage allocated insurance repair projects from commencement through to completion
n
- Coordinate subcontractors, trades and suppliers
n
- Review scopes and ensure repair methodologies are appropriate
n




- Program works and keep repairs progressing within required timeframes
n
- Complete site inspections and monitor workmanship
n
- Identify and resolve issues before they impact the customer or project
n
- Maintain communication with customers, internal teams and insurers
n
- Manage variations and additional works where required
n
- Ensure repairs meet quality, safety, contractual and compliance requirementsDrive jobs through to practical completion and handover
n

n

What You'll Bring

n

We're looking for someone with strong practical building knowledge who can confidently move between assessing damage and managing repairs.

n

Ideally, you will have:

n

n
- A trade, construction or building background
n
- Experience within insurance building, assessing and/or repair supervision
n
- Strong understanding of residential construction and repair methodologies
n
- Ability to prepare scopes of works and identify required repairs
n
- Experience coordinating subcontractors and multiple projects
n
- Strong communication and customer service skills
n
- Good problem-solving skills and the confidence to make decisions
n
- Ability to manage multiple competing priorities
n
- Understanding of WHS requirements and safe work practices
n
- Good computer skills and the ability to work across software‐based claim platforms
n
- A proactive, practical and can‐do approach
n

n

Experience across both assessing and supervision would be highly regarded; however, we are also interested in experienced tradespeople, builders, supervisors or assessors looking to broaden their skillset.

n

Ready for Your Next Move?

n

If you're a qualified trade or building qualified looking to get off the tools, take ownership of your own jobs and build a career within insurance repairs, we want to hear from you.
